Okay there seems to be three categories of samples:
The ones even a 3rd grader could pick out
The not-so-obvious ones that still stand out to a keen eye
And the ones that nothing but an algorithm could have picked out; including their false positives
The overwhelming majority seems to belong to the third kind.

You know, i have a better idea. Why not just have a program like SETI@Home where you let those algorithms (who are much better at this than any of us) run on borrowed CPU time? Most people playing this game good gaming PC's with a lot of firepower, so it would be the perfect fit. You could pay some ISK for every some block of data done. Yes this would allow people to just mine ISK; however they are actively contributing computational power to science; a much more useful contribution if you ask me.
